well, not quite correct....as I do have brakes on all 4 wheels.....however when I push the brake pedal it goes to the dirtyword floor. I just replaced the RF wheel cylinder, and replaced the brake fluid reservoir......and now when I have bled the brakes, still no brakes......I got car on jacks, then opened the 4 bleeders and let them all leak/bleed in container, and made sure the reservoir did not even get near empty.....still no brakes.....bled them again, and no brakes, so, I again loosened the 4 bleeders and did what I thought was a good job trying/attempting to get any air out of that dumb dirtyword brake pipe system......have I done something wrong?? or do I need to do something different?
my car is a 1966 PV544, which I just bought about 2 weeks ago.
stay safe
thanks
